My name is Anne and my son suffered a concussion and stroke 8 weeks ago. I am hoping to talk with others who are dealing with some of the post concussive symptoms that we are. Along with the typical headache, my son has periods of severe anger and rage, and at the same time, periods of silliness and loopiness, like he was a toddler. I would love some help in dealing with this. Seeing neurologist and no help in knowing how long this recovery could take.

What Happened: On November 29, 2010, I was walking across the street and was hit by a light rail commuter train. Result was a severe traumatic brain injury and multiple fractures (skull, pelvis, ribs). Total hospital stay was two months, one in ICU followed by an additional month in neuro-rehab. Upon hospital discharge, neurological testing revealed deficits in short term memory, executive functioning, and spatial recognition. Today: Neuropsychological examination five months post-accident indicated a return to normal cognitive functioning, and I returned to work approximately 6 months after the accident. I am grateful to be alive and am looking forward to enjoying the rest of my life. |
